The Story of a Plane Merchant Selling a House

The building was quite tall; the fallen petrified giant clam door alone was as tall as two Tang Yus.

Looking inside from the doorway, it was dark and empty, with no windows, only a high stone platform.

On the platform was a white shell the size of a basin, and inside the shell was a pale golden colored glaze ball the size of half a fist.

Tang Yu couldn't tell what material it was made of.

However, the system can make an estimate, which means that the sphere is judged to be metal and the estimated value is very high, 30,000 points.

Based on her memory and the high price given by the system, Tang Yu determined that this ball was made of the same material as the first bead she sold after activating the system and the bead in the mouth of the little girl she had rescued.

She took the basin-sized shell and the large bead,

"Yo Yo~" The sound of the little blue whale came from outside the house. It must be that the little blue whale found that she didn't follow him and came back to find her.

Tang Yu hurried out of the house. Little Blue Whale was very happy to see that she was safe.

"Yo Yo~ Yo~" After circling around her twice, the little blue whale finally felt relieved.

This time it no longer led the way in front, but insisted on moving forward side by side with Tang Yu.

After following the little blue whale through several red coral caves, they finally arrived at a building decorated with light gold glazed metal lines.

Tang Yu scanned the building. Just the decorative patterns on the gate were worth 9 points. A full scan of the entire house showed that the metal was worth more than 60 points.

Tang Yu's heart was pounding. Little Blue Whale wanted to lead her inside. Although she was envious of the points, she could not rashly take away these unknown metals that were integrated into the building.

The door of the building was closed. Little Blue Whale led Tang Yu through a hole in the corner of the wall at the back and entered the building.

The interior of this building is not covered with corals like the other buildings.

Its interior was clean but empty, and she felt as if she had accidentally entered a mansion on the grounds while inside the building.

The roof was very high. When Tang Yu looked up inadvertently, he found that the roof was made of a light gold-colored metal with relief carvings.

The entire semicircular roof is covered with five connected reliefs with complete content.

Tang Yu swam to the roof and looked carefully.

The painting shows a group of people wearing long skirts. It is hard to tell whether they are men or women, but each of them has scales between their ears and eyebrows.

Tang Yu touched the scales on his forehead and continued to look at the relief.

The relief is divided into five parts. The first part shows a person extending his hand to emit light and brushing it over a dying whale.

The second part is that she is standing on a boulder, and a giant whale with golden spots on its head blows out a bubble with a crown inside. She stretches out her hands to catch the bubble.

The third part is a scene where she sits on the head of a whale and a group of whales follow her as they swim towards a small island.

The fourth part shows a man wearing a crown standing in front of a high platform, waving a trident. Below him are densely packed figures, all holding up their weapons and opening their mouths as if they are shouting in response.

The last central picture shows a man wearing a crown standing on the head of a giant whale, and behind him are people riding sea beasts, riding the waves, and bravely rushing in one direction.

There's a piece missing in the middle of the picture, so we can't see what their enemy looks like.

Tang Yu searched the floor of the house, but couldn't find the missing piece of mural.

"Yo Yo~" The little blue whale was already urging her. Tang Yu gave up looking for the missing picture and followed the little blue whale through the long corridor.

The two sides of the corridor lit up one after another, and Tang Yu paused slightly.

The narrow and dim corridor has symmetrical circular reliefs on both sides. The circular reliefs here are the same as those in the corridor at the entrance of the ruins.

Likewise, it was these reliefs that glowed as she approached.

Tang Yu took a closer look and found that the circular relief looked more like a badge or a totem. The outer circle was composed of two leaping whales, with a crown in the middle and a trident in the middle.

Tang Yu reached out and touched it. The lighted circular totem had no mechanism, but when she moved away, the circular relief stopped lighting up.

At the end of the corridor is a door, a door decorated entirely with light gold glazed metal.

The little blue whale stretched out its little head and pushed the door open. A bright light appeared inside. The little blue whale was at the door and patted the door with its little fin.

"Yo yo~" It was urging Tang Yu.

Tang Yu felt a little nervous. She straightened her white nightgown and pushed open the door.

Behind the door was a scene that Tang Yu had never expected. Behind the door was like a lady's boudoir.

This was the only room with living furnishings among all the buildings Tang Yu had explored.

On a huge shell bed, there was a thick white mat similar to a sponge.

On top of the mat, a colorful cloth was laid out neatly, and a light blue gauze curtain was hung on the shell.

Next to the shell bed was a small coral high-legged table that was dark red with intricate patterns. On the table was a smooth, round, pearlescent basin.

There was also a pearl-colored cabinet that took up an entire wall. The cabinet was intact. Tang Yu opened it and took a look. It was empty.

Opposite the bed was a tall coral shelf, on which was a round bead. It lit up when Tang Yu approached it. Tang Yu took off the bead, and found that it was already covered with dense cracks.

Little Blue Whale guided Tang Yu through the room that was obviously a bedroom and into another place that looked like a reception room.

There was a huge round pearlescent table inside, with a circle of tall chairs around it.

Tang Yu reached out and touched the chair. It felt like pearls.

The little blue whale guided Tang Yu all the way to the pale golden colored glaze statue on the high platform.

The statue is of a woman with a scale between her eyebrows. She is wearing a long skirt, a crown inlaid with blue gems on her head, holding a trident in her hand, and looking forward with a solemn face.

"Yo~"

Tang Yu didn't know what the little blue whale wanted her to do. The little blue whale patted the statue with its fin.

She was at a loss and patted the statue gently.

The little blue whale was anxious, spinning in circles, and its tiny fins kept hitting the crown of the statue.

"Yo Yo~"

Tang Yu guessed, "Do you want me to try to take the crown off?"

"Yo yo~" the little blue whale responded happily.

Tang Yu was a little embarrassed. The crown was integrated with the statue. How could she take it off?

Although she was very strong now, she had no tools with her, so she could only try to pry it open with her hands.

The edge of the light gold colored crown was very sharp and pierced Tang Yu's hand, and blood was stained on the crown of the statue.

Suddenly, the crown shone brightly. Tang Yu raised a hand to cover his eyes.

“Ding~Ding~Dong~Dong~”

Amid the shining light, she seemed to hear the crisp and clear sound of jade breaking.
